Tricky Announces New Album Adrian Thaws, Shares "Nicotine Love"

It's out September 8

Trip-hop innovator Tricky has announced his 11th album, Adrian Thaws. That's the cover art above. It's out September 8 via his False Idols label, and follows 2013's False Idols. It was recorded at Tricky's home studio in London, and is, technically, a self-titled record. (Tricky's birth name is Adrian Thaws.)

"I suppose this is my club/hip hop album," he said in a press release. "I've only heard my music a few times in a club but I grew up in clubs from when I was 14: blues parties, hip hop clubs, a few raves. I'm not known for doing club music but this album has some club tracks on it - well, what I would consider club music." (The press release also notes that the album is meant to be played loud.)

Additionally, he's shared a song from the album, "Nicotine Love", which features singer Francesca Belmonte. Listen to it below. Mykki Blanco, Tirzah, and Blue Daisy also appear on the album.
